Weather at your house

Litchfield County in CT, and I've pulled out the snowblower a grand total of 1 time in December...and even then it was mostly because I was too lazy to move a few inches of snow with the shovel.

When we got hit by the "bomb cyclone", we lost power for a couple days in below zero temperatures, that was preceded by a near tropical rainstorm in the days leading up to the deep freeze...but no snow.

Weird year.

It was a chilly 11 below with a 24 below real feel for my walk this morning. It is supposed to warm up to a nice 5 below tomorrow morning.

Finally snow

A very very thin coating but we finally got snow on Long Island

Record lows shatter temperature records in Ontario during cold snap

Record temperatures were recorded in several parts of Ontario in recent days, breaking previous lows as far back as 1923.

At Algonquin Park, a record low of negative 41.5 C was noted on Saturday, beating the previous record of negative 38.3 C in 1923. Algonquin Park was colder than the South Pole.

Global warming or global cooling or is the climate cyclical like it has always been?
I know one thing, there is no money in a cyclical climate narrative so that can't possibly be it, can it?

From your posts it is clear you don't understand what global warming is.

Now for the important thing. If you can find one single thing that someone isn't making money off of that would be news. If you think you are telling anyone new that Al Gore is a crook I think you are sadly mistaken.

Please explain, Ben, I am all ears.

It's hard to understand why anyone would be against cleaner living. If you don't believe in global warming that's your prerogative, but why stand in the way of cleaner living?

What is the aversion to solar and cleaner energy when it can be practically applied? Why would it be a bad thing to have less plastic in the world? What's so wrong about preserving wild habitats? Why not have more fresh water?

What is it about these efforts that gets people so riled up? Why be against them? Why suggest these efforts are in vain in some way?

I also think it's a good idea to mention that climate and temperature are not the same thing. Because it is cold for a brief stretch of time (months, weeks, days, etc.) it does not mean the overall climate is not getting warmer.

You are just not using the proper technique when selling those fine pieces of merchandise.
